Relax – You Can’t Do It All

This is an important observation.

There is a lot to do in launching my new book. There are best practices and pre-order marketing along with preparation for post launch and how to price during the first week or two and beyond.

Like preparing to go on holiday and leaving the office for two weeks, you can’t sort everything. You can delegate and dismiss items but you can’t do them all yourself.

So just relax. And so will I. I’ve made huge progress in learning and doing. I will continue to make more progress until the launch and well beyond it.

There will be many tomorrow’s after the 23rd January launch. So be sure to enjoy the process and the success that has been happening.

Seek Out Magic

In your relationships, in your work and in play. Seek out magic. Look for those little sparks of joy and excitement. Find them for the first time or rekindle them. Magic is such a wonderful thing. Don’t let it disappear.

Call Someone Special Today

It could be a parent, child or sibling. Maybe an old boss. Perhaps a friend you’ve not seen for a while.

Whoever you decide it should be, call them today. Even if it’s for 10 minutes.

You’ll delight them!

Anticipation

Christmas Eve. Your birthday. An exciting holiday. A pay raise. New job. New Year’s Eve. Your date arriving. Needing the loo. Your teacher calling on you to speak. The big game. New clothes or a sunny day. The weekend.

What else creates palpable anticipation?! Drop your comment below.

When You’re Tired, Go To Bed!

Sometimes you have a deadline and need to work through it. But maybe do it for just a few nights. Don’t make emergencies a habit.

Get good rest, stay healthy and alert and also feel much better. Stop scrolling, watching or gaming and get some ?’s. Sleep is essential and lovely. Go to bed!

What Are You Avoiding?

A tough conversation, an uncomfortable discussion, admin, taxes, challenging work, health and fitness or even me-time can be avoided when we aren’t ready to face reality.

Turn into it. Stand up straight. Take a deep breath. Say, “I can do this.” And say, “Things will be fine.” Then go sort that thing you’ve been avoiding. You’ll feel better. #Go!

(anyone else tick ✅ All of the Above in that first paragraph? ?)

Celebrate Milestones!

This is my 731st daily post. Today is the 2nd anniversary of my daily blogging. I said I’d do one year and that would be a real accomplishment. Then I developed discipline, a habit and a winning streak and out popped another 365!

I’ve enjoyed writing the posts and I hope many people have enjoyed reading them and got some value from them.

I have 551 draft, or partially drafted, blog posts in my folder. I might use some of those for this 3rd year of blogging. Many were harder to write as they were controversial or required a level of research or nuance in writing them well.

Perhaps this will be the year to let a few of those loose.

I’ve also got a new book written, published and available for pre-order at many online bookstores large and small. Amazon, Waterstones, Barnes&Noble and Chapters/Indigo are a few.

There’s a hardback, paperback and an ebook version at the moment. The official launch date for Achieve Anything is the 23rd January. Look into picking up a copy.

An audiobook version is on the cards but will take more time than I can swing at the moment. It’s something for everyone to look forward to. ?

So I’m delighted with today’s milestone, with the blog, and with having a book available on Amazon.

I look forward to helping more people think better to feel better, open their minds even more and achieve their dreams with 7 simple steps.

Here’s to you in 2022!
